Re: IBM Software Agreements V7R4 pruv error

[B Stone <bvstone@xxxxxxxxx>]

I know, Robert.  Thanks.  I did look through that and jumped a little ahead
but then realized once the media is loaded that's when I accept.  And I
found that not only was I missing software keys my "entitled software" was
missing a bunch of stuff.  IBM is fixing that for me now and I'll need to
download some additional parts and start over.

It's been a few years since I did the V7R2 to V7R3 update.  I don't
remember much from it.. it was years ago.

I'd pay someone to do it for me, but I figure this is the last time I'll
need to... unless my power 8 will support v8 (or V7R5 or whatever is next)
then it's move to the cloud and let them worry about it.

I've always wondered why you can't do an OS upgrade with a PTF order like
situation.
